Alabama Shakes tops both the sales and combined chart for their first number one album on the BB200. Yelawolf debuts second on the sales and third on the combined. Fast and Furious may yield the pole position to Alabama Shakes, but strong single sales still accelerate it up to the second slot on the BB200 (its album sales left it outside of the top 10 at 11th). Drake moves up 17 slots on the sales chart this week and five on the combined to 3rd and 4th respectively. Fifty Shades is another soundtrack supported by its singles sales and Taylor is holding steady in the top 10 of both charts. Sam Smith and Ed Sheeran continue to move up on the combined chart from the sales chart, but another Sam (Hunt) stands between these two chart buddies.
The only reality competitors on the sales chart this week are Miranda Lambert (from Nashville Star) and Chase Rice (from Survivor). Chase falls off the sales chart, but Fifth Harmon (XF US) climbs into it on the combined. Miranda is on both. Now ACM features Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood.
